"This car has the 2.7 Liter engine. I have always kept the oil changes up. The only engine problem I ever had was a broken timing chain tensioner which I consider routine. After replacing the timing set it has ran just fine for another 13000 miles and shows no signs of stopping any time soon. This is a very roomy car and it has a sleek yet elegant style body. I just wish they still made them."

"I bought this 1999 Intrepid ES brand new in March, 1999. It now has 140,000 miles. The best things about this car are it's incredible roominess. The back seat is like a limousine and there is a nice big trunk. The 3.2 L 24 valve V6 has been great: no oil has ever been added between changes and it still runs strong. The Autostick 4 speed has been fine. Maintenance other than oil and filter: Brakes once, inner tie rod bushings and alignment: once, radiator fans: once. It is the car last likely to roll over: it sits down low. Infinity stereo system has been fine. I would buy another if Chrysler still made these. If you are interested in Intrepids: stay away from 1998-2001 models with the 2.7 liter V6. Definitely go for the 3.2 in cars of that vintage."

"I bought a used 1999 Intrepid 30 days after i got it the motor went out. It had 73000 miles on it. i reseached it and the untreoids that came with a 2.7 DOHC Motor dont buy it.There are last i checked 160 thousand complaints on this car. Put another motor in it and about 10000 miles later that one went bad.So do yourself a favor and if you buy one make sure it does not have the 2.7 DOHC motor."

"My Intrepid has provided 7 years of excellent service. I had two minor problems, both covered under warranty. It makes a nice family car with it's large back seat and trunk, but still looks sporty, and it's fun to drive. It has some nice features like the trip computer and an Infinity sound system. I'm pleased with the fuel economy. Averages 23 mpg around town, 28 mpg on the highway."

"First and last dodge or chrysler i would ever buy. would take one if it was new and free. Constact back to back PROBLEMS car cost more to maintain than its worth. From the cost of tires needed to the type of oil this car is designed for a garage not the Highway"
